House of the Day: 786 Putnam Avenue
This house at 786 Putnam Avenue is a real charmer. Tons of original detail, including some beautiful parquet floors and a killer staircase.

This house at 786 Putnam Avenue is a real charmer. Tons of original detail, including some beautiful parquet floors and a killer staircase. The house is also located in just outside Stuyvesant Heights, the longtime-landmarked section of Bed Stuy with one of the most incredible and well-preserved stock of old houses anywhere. The house is only three stories, though, so it’ll be interesting to see if it fetches its asking price of $799,000. We bet it’ll get pretty close.

this is a tasteful livable interior–doesn’t look like a flip for ripping the nouveau riche housewives. Unfortunately the market is collapsing.
DIBS, I said the same thing 10 minutes earlier as your 1:38, Geez!
Floor plan:
On broker’s site, go to Virtual Tour.
Floor plan tab in upper right hand corner.
I bet the discount will be 5% or less. This is a VERY nice house.
DIBS—hate to sound nitpicky but that is a full 10 blocks from the Utica A stop. Don’t think anyone could walk that in 6 minutes.
I finally found the floorplan. it’s within the Virtual Tour link.
They did some weird stuff putting that big bath and bedroom on the parlour level. I don’t like garden level kitchens.
It does have a CofO for a 2 family….basement & parlour is one unit and top floor the other. Switch them around, put a kitchen on the parlour level and you got a nice place with income.
Nevermind…I found it.
I love the bathrooms. Love the masterbed room shower.
Well… two things.
(1) $800,000 is only “attainable for normal people” in this crazy world we call New York City… and, related to that, the definition of “normal people” is certainly a *very* small subset of the people that actually live in New York City — very small.
(2) I think black people live in that neighborhood.
